About Me
Since the very beginning, the name "Cold As Life" has meant a lot of things to many different people. Individuals from all over the globe have felt a strong connection to its harsh truth - reality. A vivid, brutal, and honest depiction of an unforgiving world and the cruelty that lies within it. To this day we have heard no equal to Rawn Beauty's lyrics - nothing makes our teeth cringe or the hairs on the back of our neck stand in the same way - NOTHING. Against everyone's will Rawn was murdered, in 1993. People felt like it would never ever be the same, and it never has. Yet, in the dawn of this dark time, it became the responsibility & duty of the living to carry on his tradition and to pass down these stories through the music. Overcoming tragedy & adversity, the band achieved success that it never dreamed possible. Cold As Life has truly seen its dreams & nightmares come to pass.
Whether it was out of respect, fear, or love, many still came out and showed their support after his death - and this time is no different.
Those of us who hold this legacy close to our hearts have wanted this to happen just as bad as the fellas, the fans, and anyone else who relates to this movement. For everyone that has expressed an overwhelming desire for Cold As Life to come back,
here's your fucking chance.
Composed of 3 members: Roy Bates - Drums (original member, 88-00), Mike Couls - Bass (96-01, longest standing bass player besides Jake Loch (RIP),
The Big Dawg - Guitar (98-01, founding member of Detroit's Legendary A.L.D), ...and completed by our singer and newest member, the spirt grows strong! He has his heart & soul into this project, he knew Rawn personally, lived with him, and has been going to shows since day one. His style and sound is the closest to Rawn possible, and he has all of our confidence and faith.
Our intention with this reunion is to honor the words and music of Rawn Beuty & Cold As Life, and to give a whole new generation a chance to be a part of something that it has missed. At this point we will do a Full U.S tour (May-June) and a European Tour (Aug-Sept) for this one time only, come see what real hardcore is all about!!!
